McBush, McSame, McWar, and now since he's flip flopped so much we can call him McKerry.

To Phil , in FL. I hope you are right, before but not after ;1/20/2009 ……then the Democrats , will have to deal with it…………We don't want to see that………….Now, do we……………….

CNN is the most biased netwrok I have come across. When I send the comments they do not publish it. They say it is under moderation. However same time most liberal comments, they publish here because they want John McCain or Booby Jindal to read these stupid messages. I do not care what CNN does but I will stop reading your Ticker box and also I will not watch your channel. You are the most biased network and a pouthpiese of Barack Hussein obama. If CNN knows journalism, please tell me what are the achievements of Barack Hussein obama. VOTE JOHN MCCAIN. BARACK IS A HOAX.

Bobby Jindel the bio major from Brown who believes in Creationism….for VP?……yeah, we need more of the same….

McCain has strengths, however, crying and whining about Obama position shifts, make him look more and more like Hillary…..another loser. C'mon McCain you can win if ya refrain from your current mudslinging…if not buy a pantsuit and pretend to be another Clinton.

I like the "write in Hillary" idea. That can be for those who can't stand the Brat, but don't like McCain. I do like McCain, so I'll go ahead and vote for him. Also, I like Ralph Nader, who can always be counted on to tell it like it is. He says what I'm thinking. I wonder what American blacks will think when they're left out in the cold again. They'll think the Clintons were the best thing that ever happened to them, but it will be too late.

C'est la vie.

Oh yeah, Jindal, the guy who gave himself and friends a nice raise in salary for ????? nobody really knows!

Oh yeah, I'll hang on his every word. As I'm sure his priorities are all in the right places! (his pocket book and personal bank account)

I wouldn't give McCain a lollipop let alone a vote. But I'm sure McCain has already told Jindal he scratched him off his short list for VP after that report came out! Now Jindal has to even the score. Politics what great entertainment !

Jindal faces recall in Louisiana organized by his conservative former supporters and he dare give political advice!!!

Mccain has no plans for our economy except for rich people. war war war war war war war war war war kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kil thats mccains economy attact iran attack iran attack iran attack iran attack iran attack iran thats mccains economy!

McCain needs to do more than just "talk about the economy proactively," he needs to be converted from left-leaning "Republican" to true conservative. It won't be enough for McCain to repeat how Obama will bankrupt the nation with socialist programs and job-destroying tax increases, or how the American economy will be crippled by ludicrous carbon dioxide taxes to keep solar activity from warming the earth. Unless McCain can get enough producers to the ballot box, the parasites will elect Obama.

By 2012, however, people may have figured out that killing the golden goose of the economic engine wasn't a good idea… and they may still have a chance to correct their mistake. By then the Republicans had better find a darn strong conservative candidate to face HRC, or we may as well get used to Karl Marx as required reading in our schools.

I'd rather see a mormon VP than this young punk! what does he know, he is a moron! He looks like Charlie brown!

I think he is going to be a wonderful president. Obama can't be trusted, he has already lied to America more than once. We need a president we can trust to do the right thing. McCain is the man for the job!

Jindal is a lunatic. He would be a great VP for McCain, however, as that would guarantee a McCain loss.

Talk economy and your persoanl success Bobby. You have to appeal to the younger generation as well. Success in the real sense and not about being the first dark skinned President of the United States. Mix it up. 97% are not fortunate to be in the smart and brightest bracket. Encourage them that it is alright and they can fiind many ways to feel successful. Hip Hop has worked for a certain group while some a destined to be governor.

Since McCain can't even use a computer, which is the most effective tool for communications about everything, including economics, why would anyone want to listen to him "proactively". Besides, if McCain is given the power to "push the button" and raise the rockets, I'd be even more determined not to give him the opportunity to press the wrong one or rely on his wife to do it for him.

The problem is that McCain opposed many of the policies he now endorses. He was against the Bush tax cuts. He supported comprehensive immigration. He was against offshore drilling. McCain is having a hard time being proactive on the economy because he really does not believe in the policy positions he now endorses. Often times, it seems like he is reading a script from somone else's speech. It does not seem authentic. That is a MAJOR PROBLEM. I do not see anything he can do to WIN! The Republicans should have chosen someone else. McCain 2008 is not the same McCain of 2000.

Jindal needs to do great things as a Governor then run for President in 2012. He is far and away a better candidate than McBush. Unfortunatly the GOP will not back Jindal because he is not an elite, white, multi millionaire in the pocket of the Big Corporations.

Oh did he means reading from a prompter hahahahah!
Mcain doesn't has knowlegde about jack! Everything he says is written and presented by his consultant because the only experience he has is of flying WW-I airplanes.

Did the poster who wouldn't trust an adult Bobby reject Bobby Kennedy as well?

Where was Mr. Jindal when supplies for Katrina victims were given away by the State of Louisiana?

I have thought too that the Iraq war could escalate into Iran before the election. I wouldn't be surprised.

It would be too easy for Obama to win and the Iraq war wind down in 16 months. Something is going to come up before the election.

I'll bet Israel attacks Iran before the election, the we'll be pulled in.

McBushie would be helped? Anyway – watch for it folks. It's the only chance the Republican War Machine has of keeping the WH.

Jindal, 1st generation US born (parents from India), is a very wise man.

I think he should not hook his wagon to the McCain falling star.

He'll go far if he can distance himself from the current Republican Administration and the Republican's who so closely support Bush/Cheney/Rove/McCain tactics.

Think for yourself, Jindal, and for your constituents.

Go Obama 08

I have not seen one ticker in regards to the 2nd amendment and the Heller vs DC case.

I will say this, and I hope pro-Obama or anti-gun supporters read this and look up the information.

The state of Montana wrote a letter to the Supreme Court threatening to secede from our country back in March and revert back to a territory if the vote swung in favor of the gun ban. With a 5-4 vote, the Supreme Court has shown in the past week that 6th graders studying the Constitution know more about it than they do. Instead of interpreting the laws based on the Constitution, they are pushing their political agenda, and it makes this American sick.

Time and time again, you fail to understand the guns bought legally PROTECT people, and the illegal guns used to hurt people are not bought in stores.

It's just another way of reducing our liberties, much like the Patriot Act and Homeland Security has done….

different party… same agenda… stop trying to take my rights away.. OR ELSE

That the governor of Alaska and Louisiana run together in 2012… with those two… no way you can lose…

to Mimi de la Cruz… shame on you and your pathetic attitude… but keep typing… every capital key stroke shows your ignorance and bigotry.

Someone please explain to me how does a POW experience make you an authority on foreign policy? Their are thousands of POWs out there with the same military experience as McCain, you don't see them running for president based on that experience. Rather than looking at the experience part, you better look at whom these candidates will be getting foreing policy advice from. McCain will still be getting advice from those croonies that got us in this Iraq mess. Obama advicers will be men/women that have exceptional knowlege on foreign policy, that, combined with his brillant intellectual ability, how can he go wrong in leading this country forward. Voters pretend you are in Las Vagas. You put your bet on a hand that has the odds of winning (Obama), not on a hand that has proven that it is a losing hand (McCain's hand, the same hand bush holds). Vote Obama.

PCS / North Carolina ………Some minorities (Indians) wants to act like majority, so that there would be no place for another minority in politics. Jindal fogot his roots. His father is a veted D……….YOU forgot
to take a shower…………wash (prejududice down the drain) KEEP your littl sly racist comments.

Right Gov. Jindal! Maybe he will ask you to join the ticket!

McCain 08!

re Farrell Houston TX
talk about trained puppies you'd better hope Richardson and Casey's medical insurance are up to date because if obama stops short they are both going to need nose surgery

“Senator McCain has to talk more proactively about his views on domestic issues…"

What a joke; Senator McCain is old, lost, out-of-touch and a blank elitist – he has no views of his own.

And Governot Jindal? Another joke; I would never trust a grown adult male named Bobby.

what Mccain should be doing is asking obama why, what, where, why did he lie about how is father came to America, why did he lie about when and where his parents met. why does he make his wife plunge the — out of the toilet why does he make his wife take out the trash. what was wrong with the way she talked and dressed, where did the billions of dollars the oil companies invested to make their profits go ( i'm sure they wouldn't spend it on anything that helped the economy) just ask him questions on anything and question his answers like ABC did then the voting public can see for themselves how shallow and superficial he really his

Bobby Jindah is a far right wing zealot. I hope McCain has more sense that to go there with a VP choice. Most Amercians, Democrats and Republicans alike, are sick of self-serving partisanship and do not align themselves with either the far left or the far right. Hopefully, McCain will not feel the need to pander to the ultra-conservative right wing represented by the likes of Jindah.

economy economy economy, thats all i hear but no one knows anything about, im sure we could all just lie to ourselves and say we have the perfect solution to the problem and believe our own lie. Lets be honest we dont and i can pretty much tell you if our plan is to give more money to the people who just want another piggy back ride on top of their SSI and welfare we are in big trouble. Obama is right for this country because thats what this country has become a bunch of complainers. And i also agree we need change. Change back to what was once america and not to what was never america or the new extreme. Next thing u know we'll be ruled by guy with down syndrome and an inferiority complex just so we csan hear hillary say "Yes We Can"

how can mccain talk about the economy when he admitted he dosent know much about it no plans no nothing just a continue of the bush economic policy since he agrees with it and said its good thats what kind of economy plan we have with mccain A THIRD BUSH ECONOMY please lord help us bless us hard if mccain becomes president were gonna need it!!!!!

McNasty doesn't understand or know anything about the economy. He said that. He doesn't know how to use a computer. He said that, too.

McSlim cheated on his first wife afer a tragic car reck with the second rich wife, Cindy.

McShame is disgusting. Listening to his Town Hall meetings you would think you were at a funeral.

A 60 year old Republican w/woman voting for Barack Obama.

I find it interesting that when someone like John McCain is honest enough to admit that he is stronger on issues of national security than economy, instead of being praised for his humility and candor he is continually ridiculed. Have we really become that superficial?

Eugene…

Mc Cain isn't the only war hero we have! Give me a break! The war he did fight in had nothing to do with my freedom!

The Nam war… the USA should have stayed out of! McCain's plane was shot down… POW – well at least they didn't kill him after all that's what war is about! I didn't ask Johnny Boy the War Monger to fight for me! Another war… yes the Iraq war… we should not be there!

Mc Cain needs to get a clue!

Jindah is a trained Republican for his own political ambitions. I bet if he had a choice he'd jump off that bandwagon. What promises did the Bush administration make with India that will be the making of Jindah. Watch, wait and listen and we will soon find out.

Obama doesn't know anything about the economy or foreign policy. He just reads prepared speeches and hides from debates and Town Hall meetings. Amazingly enough his followers believe everything he reads them. A 23 year old writes what Obama is supposed to say. By the way I wonder if anyone has took the time to see how Obama got elected in Chicago. It was a lot like the primary, voter suppression.

How can he talk about something he knows little about? He changes his stance on everything consistently. He said he would run a non negative campaign yet every chance he gets, he bashes Obama. But he is a polictician you can trust right?

Talk about a hypocrite, woman hater and liar.

It is kind of difficult for Mc Cain to speak about the economy because he does not and can not REALLY relate to the "AVERAGE AMERICAN". In his heart and soul, he does not know or feel the every day struggles that alot of Americans are going thru. Respect and admre him for his service in Vietnam….but….not as our President. Obama relates more to the "AVERAGE AMERICAN" and will be a President for ALL. GO OBAMA !!!

Vig………..There is a way around this toxic dump site – join the write-in's for Hillary on your November ballot and restore her candidacy……
Hillary is YESTERDAYS BAD news………..FUll of LIES and deceit…….she played on Americans and it BACK fired……….she used the sexiam card……..she cried and lied mismanaged her campaign
and she realize it without any remorse ……….SHE had a good TEACHER (BILL- SLICK WILLY) she HAD the TOP guns (Rendell and others) it is over and time to MOVE on ………. SHE is a strong WOMAN and I admire HER for that ………but the RESULTS are IN ……SHE is a fighter and a true democrat ……..LET ' S move on………V ig Stay HOME!!

Jindal refuses to veto the largest raise ever given to state legislators.What type of vice president would he be.

As Publisher of Bayoubuzz.com, Mr. Jindal needs to know that he must be proactive here in Louisiana. There is a recall petition calling for his recall because he will not veto large pay raises voted against the will of the people for the benefit of the Louisiana legislators. As the founder of a rally scheduled for July 7 at 2 pm at the Louisiana State Capitol, and founder of Citizen Can who is hosting this rally, we are demanding a good man, Governor Jindal to stand up and be strong and veto legislation himself and not be scared of the legislature. It is ironic that he is saying McCain should be proactive, when the Louisiana voters are overwhelmingly demanding that he be proactive and a recall petition has been filed against him.

PROACTIVE????…how about just a simple plan from a feeble minded Idiot.

Same old words and same old voices. The Volunteer and paid Obama bashers are still at it and even though they have slightly diiferent names, their comments are about the same as they aimed at Hillary Clinton. I am not a McCain supporter and will either vote for Nader or stay home on election day. I will point out that McCain is a war hero and he spent five (5) years in a cage for us and he deserves our respect. You can disagree with him on the issues, but the name calling and the mean and nasty comments need to stop!

McCain probably doesnt touch on these subjects yet because if he did then the media would twist it all around and im quite sure he knows this. The problem isnt McCains tactics to get into the white house it is the the idiot hate mongers that see a little poll and let the media make up their mind for them, rather than trying to listen to what McCain proposes. At best they just chat childish empty things like "Elect McCain and you'll feel pain". And i doubt they have enough of a mind to make it rhyme. Yet the democrats dont know what a true leader is, he isnt someone who begs to make everyone happy (you cant do that Obama its impossible). A Leader leads to the best of his ability and make to the minute decisions and he is simply letting americans know what he can do not what he's going to bend backward to fail at. Im sure we all wish that at a moments notice he wishes he could call every house in the US to see their hold on extremely hard to make decision.

George Bush is not on the ballot. As an independent, I am opting to make a radical statement with my vote – I am voting for the better candidate. Not for the past president, his administration, or other Republicans I don't like.

Americans for McCain

50% of Americans say the economy is the #1 issue, and McCain knows nothing about it… can you say President Obama?

Would you hillary supporters give it a break….. She lost….. To Qoute Bill Paxton…. Game over…. Game over man!!!!!

I saw this broadcast this morning and Mr. Jindal did his fair share of dancing around specific topics he didn't want to discuss. There was a discussion about raises for state employees or something to that effect that he disagrees with terribly as he stated. Candy kept asking him why he just doesn't stop it as govenor if he disagrees with it so much. It was like watching dancing around the topic with the stars.

Peter,
It may be more realistic if CNN will post 1 or 2 comments that are either neutral or not so anti-McCain.
Thanks!

On the economy…." I SEE DUMB PEOPLE"

"Senator McCain may not be an expert in creating jobs or incomes, but he is the No. 2 unpopular senator in wasting our tax dollars. (No. 1 is Dr. Ron Paul.)"

Sorry! I meant to say that Senator McCain does not waste our tax dollars.

This McCain man has nothing to offer Americans. He does not know what The US Economy is saying, he believes that whether you go to work or stay at home, you will need a pint of beer; that is what makes him happy. once the beer is selling, he does not care what others go through about Economy.

I've have recently become an Independent because of the way Hillary Clinton was treated by the DNC. I'll be voting for John McCain in November. He's the most qualified candidate beside Hillary Clinton.

BY THE WAY GINDAL CAN KISS HIS POLITICAL

CAREER GOD BY. HE WON'T BE ABLE TO GET

ELECTED DOG CATCHER AFTER THIS TERM.

MCIGNORANT HAS ONE PLAN FOR OUR ECONOMY,

THE BUSH PLAN, AND WE CAN COUNT ON IT.

How many economists are currently involved in teaching McCain about economics and advising him? Are they Republican?

DON'T YOU PEOPLE GET IT BY NOW?

MCSAME HAS ONE ANSWER BOMB, BOMB, BOMB.

HE CANT EVEN SPELL ECONOMY.

HE IS NOTHING BUT A GERIATRIC VERSION OF BUSH.

MCSAME SAID HIMSELF,

DE DOESN'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE ECONOMY.

He's gotta learn about economics before he can talk about it. He's admitted to knowing squat about it. McCain=Bush!!!

If Bobby Jindal doesn't veto the legislators pay raise in July, HE will be the subject of a recall along with the legislators that voted for it. Conservatives in Louisiana are pissed.

Vig,

Give it up. Hillary has lost. Please stop crying that her candidacy was hijacked. Let it go, and move on. The past is just that. She could have should have and what have. High school students that lose a basketball state championship move on and say " next time we will win". So, stop whining like a child and move on with your life.

Sen McCain flip flopped on Bush's tax cuts for the wealthy. First he said tax cuts during a time of war was wrong, wrong when our Troops don't have the appropriate protection to stay alive. Now he says they should be made permanant so that our economy can continue to grow. HUH? This bounty paid on creating a new battery, where is the money going to come from? Cindy or us taxpayers? With all the wealth out there, taxpayers are going to again subsidize private industry? Wow, sounds like gov pork Sen McCain hates so much or more of that liberal socialism. I smell another flip flop here.

And exactly who is the main stream media to judge anyone else on talking about the issues? Just look at the list of the political tickers as an example! If I'm generous I'd say maybe 10% of them say something about issues or the candidate's record on those issues.

I'd extend Jindal's criticism to the main stream media. Talk about the facts concerning the economy, Iraq, jobs, immigration, education, health care, etc. and give the facts about where we are, what the candidates have done, and what they currently say they will do. We don't need irrelevant stuff or speculation. Afraid people might start thinking and deciding for themselves instead of surrendering to media hype?

Jindal is a self proclaimed EXORCIST and Faith Healer….

Maybe Jindall can perform exorcism and cast out the demon of flip floppery out of the McSame campaign.

Demon of Flip-floppery….the spirit of Christ compeles you… )

Here's the irony – the person who should be the next President – Hillary Clinton, has her candidacy hijacked by the male-controlled media who is controlled by another male- George Soros. John McCain is substantive, but his thinking is old fashioned and the train has already left the station. Then we have Obama – a person of very little substance, who spews empty words, smiles alot and is flip-flopping his way down the yellow brick road. There is a way around this toxic dump site – join the write-in's for Hillary on your November ballot and restore her candidacy.

I don't think he needs to talk about a subject he has no idea what he's talking about….. Want to talk war, war, and a little more war on top of that?…… How about a little dollup of fighting…… Then cap it off with a side order of war?

Yes, McCain should. And Obama should as well. In fact both candidates, as well as the main stream media need to stop the nonsense about irrelevant stuff and concentrate on issues!

The only thought scarier than McCain becomming President, is that McCain will kick the bucket while serving and this guy will become President in his place.

Bobby Jindal need's to take his lip's off John old man Mccain's backside.

Ah ,,, he better learn about the economy and economics first! His is a one-pony show: Bomb Iraq.

corby, i agree with you completely.

THE YOUNG GOVERNOR IS JUST TRYING TO PLAY SOME PLANKS ON MCCAIN, HE CANT TALK ABOUT ECONOMY BECAUSE THATS HIS WEAKEST POINT…DEFINITELY DONT KNOW WHAT ECONOMY IS ALL ABOUT…JINDAL IS ONE OF THOSE REPUBLICAN OFFICIALS THAT SECRETELY SUPPORTS OBAMA …COME OUT OF THE SHADOW MY FRIEND

McCain can't even pay his taxes on his California condo…how does anyone expect him to handle the economy?

McCain doesn't know anything about the economy, working people, city and state issues, nothing…nada…zip

Proactive? He'll have to wait until he gets a VP and delegate that duty to the VP, 'cause McCain can't handle it.

McShame was NEVER totured in VIETNAM!

this is a LIE he is bandying around to shore up his distorted war experience!

I remember after McCain little stroll through Iraq when he lie to the American people about how safe Iraq was, he said that he had lied to the American people in the past and that he would lie to them again, why would any conservative went to support anyone who promises to lie to them in the future. I think he should apologize to all of us, and the press lacks the courage to report it!

Is Jindal saying that McCain needs to EVOLVE his economic plan? HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Jindal has his own problems with Trust, He help cheat the Indian Nation out of Millions of dollars in Louisiana for a gambling boat deal and they are not happy with him. The Republican party has McDebt and BJ-Cheat as their representative.

"Jindal: 'McCain has to talk more proactively' on economy"

…after he has picked his brains off the floor!

Americans, be wise….dont vote a mentally retarded patient into the WH!!!!

John McCain admitted he doesn't know anything about the economy. He can only talk about the military and the war. My brother in law is a veteran with 24yrs of military sevice, my dad with 21 yrs of military service, and they do not like or believe in John McCain's stand for the war in Iraq, and veteran policies. They both fought in former wars the 1st Iraq war and my dad in the Korean war.

War is ugly and many soldiers are killed, disabled and come back with mental problems. Also, it breaks up many families. When you fight for your country to protect others and cannot get decent veteran benefits or a 4 yr college education after 3 yrs of service,what person in their right mind would vote for John McCain? He's rich. What does he care about the average military veteran? This war is killing our economy. Look at the condition of America! No McCain!

To any gays or Lesbian HRC supporters now for McCain: THIS GUY WANTS TO AMEND THE CONSTITUTION TO STRIP YOUR MARRIAGE RIGHTS AWAY…THINK ABOUT IT…

It's odd that the McCains haven't paid any taxes in 2007…gee, I wish I could do that!

Candy, Candy, Candy:
While interviewing the Govt. official in Bagdad, you used the term "irregardless". Now certainly you, an apparent educated reporter must be aware there is no such word as "irregardless". Please be more careful in the future. Sincerlly: Jim

We do not need the Clinton supporters. Most of them are in Racist [Red] states that Obama is not going to win anyway, and the rest are evenly spread around the nation. We will easily make it up in Record turnouts with Blacks, some Hispanics, First-timers, Independents, and some republicans.

remember there are 17 million more Democrats than Republicans, and this is the first election where almost all will vote. We will beat McCain just by our numbers.

The people on this site are immature. Where's the moderator?

McCain can't talk about something he doesn't know, can't remember or understand. It's ridiculous for people to expect any different when he can only talk about being a POW or war. McCain doesn't understand the U.S. doesn't have the economic bargaining power to continue off track. Vote Obama.

Can the Senator do it??? I believe he can. I just don't know if he really understands…….I mean, REALLY understands, LOL!!!

He just has to be more affable about it…

Senator McCain can't be proactive on too much other than trying to scare the American people about the possibility of another attack. The rest of it he has to stick to the script given to him because I'm not convinced he knows of nothing but war. He admitted he guess he needed to read Greenspan's book.

A note to Corby, I mentioned nothing about Bobby Jundal, nor about his race. Please read and pay attention before you blindly attack. My reference about hispanics was in general and very true.

Barack Obama is a false prophet who is getting exposed. See how carefully he avoids discussions with McCain and even the press. You hear only his empty speeches. The citizens of this country are alert. By fall all those who have been researching his background will come out with more data that voters will evaluate and judge. Anyone familiar with history can tell that this guy is a populist and a demagogue. Despite the odds against McCain, he will win.

To the poster Clinton, no, wait, McCain Supporter, your ignorance is astounding. He was for public financing only in agreement w/McCain about the cootrol of 527s. Since McCain can't control them, and he used YOUR's AND OURS public finance money as collateral for his loan during the primaries (ILLEGAL), Barack said he wouldn't do public financing.

Secondly, Barack's has from day one been saying "we should be as careful getting out as we were careless getting in."

And just like you, I'll take honor (Barack speaking out against the war in 2002, speaking up for his wife) and experience (Barack working with the poor on the south-side of chicago for three years, 8 years a state legislator, 2 years as a u.s. senator) over greed (McCain getting money for pacs and lobbyists who run his campaign. ie. charlie black) and prepared speeches (Bomb, bomb, Iran) any day of the week.

So watch Mr. Keating-5, wife-bad-mouthing, Bush-hugging, lobbyists-loving candidate and your party go down in flames come November and over the next four years (when Barack initiates the war crimes trials). Peace.

Raymond Duke, if 18,000,000 people donated $1 to a presidential campaign, how much money would be donated? Most of Senator Obama's donors are regular people like me. He was smart enough to accept the lowest dollar amount, believing that it would encourage people who otherwise would be deterred from donating $100 – $2300 to a campaign. He took a chance and proved that it works. So, are you saying college kids, and others you mentioned can't afford $1-$5 dollars? Have you ever thought that maybe those who contributed for the first time in their adult lives are doing so as an investment for the future of our country? Also, since you beg to tie liberal to all Democrats, are all our soldiers conservatives? Probably not, but, what ratio of conservative soldiers are there to liberal ones? Given the categories of questionable campaign contributors, what percentage of Americans are the following: partially employed college kids, people who are losing their homes, non-employed, and people on welfare? Is it possible you left a ton of people out of your equation? What about the currently employed, already educated, non-welfare recipients, people not affected by the mortgage crisis? We exist you know. Trust that if Senator Obama was doing anything illegal, it would've already presented itself, given the scrutiny he and his wife are under. Wouldn't be jealous would you?

Hey, guys, we've only seen the beginning of the list of things on which Obama cannot be trusted. He, of course, is an expert in everything and cannot admit there is any area in which he might rely on others. Guess he won't be needing a Cabinet, unlike every other president.

Obama lies and he's the greediest man I've ever seen. Not satisfied with 1/4 billion dollars in campaign funds, he makes Hillary bring her own fund raisers to sweeten the pot.

If the US Presidency is for sale, Obama will win. If it isn't, we might get a hint of democracy in the next 4 years. Chicago politics are best viewed from the angle of a sewer rat, but they do carry so many unpleasant diseases. That would be Obama.

McCains advisor is Phil Gramm.

To Hillary '08 and McCain '08, both of whom sound like the same person:

Whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, there is no need to be a bigot. I'm an Obama supporter but I will not stand for anyone racially abusing Gov. Jindal and his Indian heritage.

KateLynn Hussein Kensington

Isn't Jindal a Hindu?

"Hmmmmm", ask the Republicans.

I'm disappointed in the racist comments by some against Jindal. "Little Indians"? "Hajis"?

Give me a break. Or do these comments show the only kind of person who would vote for McCain?

How much do you obama fans think HE knows about economics? One thing I love about McCain (and Cindy McCain, to) is that their egos are sufficiently intact that they don't feel the need to pretend they know everything about everything. Of course, in this jackal's den, you all, who all know less than ANY of the candidates, will seize on McCain's remarks. Check it out, kids. He ran the Commerce Committee in the US Senate. More bragging needed, I guess. It's what you respond to.

And Cindy McCain, who first refused, then decided to release her tax information because everyone was making such a big deal about it, said to a reporter

McCain wants to solve our energy crisis by going ahead and giving away land to oil companies, tainting the last few pristine places on earth, while depleting what little we have left of an already scarcely growing fuel. I suppose it won't hurt much after all the nuclear waste we have built up. If you got a headache, pinch yourself and distract the pain.

McBush is a lier, a cheat and a womizer!!! He's way to old and I'm 64, ready to retire, went through Vietnam and its time to stop fighting vietnam. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANOTHER VIETNAM COMMERCIAL. IT'S OVER. MCBUSH IS OVER!!! Jindal can't help him one bit!!! Its more of the Bush, Bush and Bush. Lets try something NEW!!!!! It just might work! Go Obama!!

Jindal is a tool.

For those of you in love with Jindal and think he ought to be listened to, you should know he is the subject of a recall petition for his craven failure to veto and 123% pay raise for our Legislature. Expected from opportunistic, avaricious legislators–basically crooks–but we expected more of Jindal.

It's hard to talk about something you know nothing about!
If he can't get the difference between a Shia and a Sunni- what will he call the recession we're in……..progress?

Raymond Duke your are an idiot. These are politicians that we are talking about. Both of them have questionable stuff in their closets — McCain has much more because he has been in it for so long so you shouldn't even start that debate. Choose your candidate based on policies, debate on policies, your idiotic postings do nothing to sway anyone to your side. Go ahead and look at the donations — don't you know that the candidates have to report that every month? I am one of the small donors – I am employed, I work hard, I am not a democrat. My parents, in their 70s and republicans, are two of the small donors. And I have to guts to defend my country — against enemies, wisely, and not because George Bush had some agenda about Iraq or because McCain sees our leaving as some macho "losing". I look forward to the day when our country is again seen internationally as strong and moral. I am enjoying this campaign because it has energized so many people to look at the issues and discuss the issues and decide on the issues.

McCain cannot be trusted either. He betrayed his country long time ago in Vietnam. He was a song bird. He revealed military secrets and surrendered long time ago and now this person wants to be the a president of the USA. Do you guys really think that while being POW McCain was held in prison for no reason just to see his nice face or there was a reason. Do you believe Vietnamese have asked him: "What can we do for you Mr McCain to make your prisoner life more enjoyable"??? Of course there is a reason. He was forced to reveal the secrets and he did. He should not be proud of being POW. He went to war knowing that if enemy get him somehow he will be forced to cooperate with the enemy and that's exactly what he did. He never thought that it would be in his country's best interest if he killed himself. Instead he agreed to cooperate with the enemy. And now he wants to be a president. That's not the kind of president we want Mr McBetrayer.

Mike ………. Obama is an idiot. That the dems would place him as their nominee shows how far out of mainstream America that party has become……..Voting for Obama is NOT a protest vote against GW Bush. It is suicide…………………Suicide is what should have HAPPEN
the day you were BORN……..IDIOT is WHAT you SEE when YOU STAND in front of the MIRROR!!!!!!………Obama is WHAT the WORLD
needs NOW!!!

As a McCain supporter, I agree that he must talk more about domestic issues and return to his original stand regarding taxes and immigration. I also think he would do well to back farther away from Bush. Gore backed all the way away from Clinton and was trounced as a result, so this can be risky business. It's one thing to back away from a loser, but Gore backed away from the most loved man in America. And if Gore hadn't lost so many votes by being holier than thou in other states, Florida wouldn't have mattered.

Obama has been lying from Day One. He is greedy beyond measure, not satisfied with the 1/4 billion he already raised among the Hitler Youth who follow him like a guru.

He lied when he promised to work with only federal campaign funds because of his personal greed that apparently knows no bounds.

He lied when he said he would immediately withdraw from Iraq. Now he says, "gradual withdrawal."

He makes Hillary Clinton look like a skin-flint. You can have him. I'll take honor and experience over greed and prepared speeches any day of the week.

That's a typo: should be JINDAL

I think JIndal or Palin would be good VP choices.

For excellent coverage on Obama, see noquarter.com

Atleast McCain admits he knows little about the economy being a Retired Navy Pilot, but Obama who is a "Lawyer" is more dangerous as he will not admit he knows little about the economy. Both need advisors who are economist and business owners to suggest what to do to strengthen our economy. Just because Obama went to Harvard does not mean he knows everything. Rmember he went after the 60's Revolution so he has been brainwashed to the "LIBERAL AGENDA".

BHO Not my Candidate

Whats funny, is McCain is the only one tackling our trade imbalance.

and the funny thing is he don't care if we balance spending and income…
Just like he is fine with 100 years of war…
He don't care about getting out of the red

The guy is rich, he doesn't understand the common man.. that is why he is so concentrated on foreign issues.. he doesn't get it.

I will agree with the one about the Keating five. Maybe we ought to talk about Rezkto, Obama 's wife getting that big pay raise, maybe the Dailey machine out of chicago. Maybe we ought to look at all them donations and see where they come from. You can't be raising that much money fromnon- employed are partially employed college kids, you can't be rasing that much from all these people who are loosing their houses and if he is getting it from all these people maybe we should could them school grants and welfare checks . Apparently they don't need the handouts. Oh by the way . I think we should restart the draft with no exemptions (rich , poor, college, married , whatever). I love to hear all you liberals cry about the loss of lifes in Irag. The crying you are really doing is because you don't have the guts to defend your country.

I agree with Gov Jindal, that McCain should become more proactive with the energy crisis.
More strength is needed on McCain's direction on all issues and
more addressing to the American people on these issues is needed, before the general election.

Thank you Hillary08 and McCain08. You have made my day. I have laughed all morning. Thank you for making blogs a funny place to read!

Obama is an idiot. That the dems would place him as their nominee shows how far out of mainstream America that party has become.

Voting for Obama is NOT a protest vote against GW Bush. It is suicide.

The governor from lousianna is right. McCain needs to spend more tiime on this issue. It is very important. He needs to bring forth good ideas and solutions if he expects to win.All the working people are waiting for solutions and details on this matter. Change and hope work good for the Obama people who are mostly left wing liberals, college students who have never been in the workforce to really support themselves and welfare receipents who just want handouts anyway of off someone elses sweat.

no, McCain has to try to say very little about the economy. Republicans will always ruin the economy, as history shows. It's better for McCain if he tries to get people to forget about the economy by talking about "bitter" comments (even though he called people "angry" two days later), or "flip-flopping" (Because no one changes their mind. Ever – Oh wait! We do it all the time. We should be more concerned about what they change their mind to, instead of what they changed their mind about.).

Some minorities (Indians) wants to act like majority, so that there would be no place for another minority in politics. Jindal fogot his roots. His father is a veted Democrat.

A note for Flip Flop McCain: Just so you know, Bobby Jindal is not hispanic. He was born in Baton Rouge, La to parents who came to the US from India. I believe it is impossible for a presidential candidate to be vastly experienced in all aspects of American politics. This is quite an unreasonable request. The key to correct our economy is not through the politicians, it is through the America people making better choices with their income! I sincerely wonder what our economic situation may look like if America had avoided credit cards and NOT gone after things they cannot afford through the variety of mortgage options out there. Ultimately, these are more contributing factors to the failing economy in American; more so than political rhetoric or even the price of oil.

Come on America, let's look at ourselves in a very critical sense and start living more like our parents and grandparents did with their incomes. The reality of our taxation system is that it no longer makes sense. If anyone out there knows what they are doing when they file their taxes, please let me know! I do what I know is required, taking only lawful deductions and paying my allotted taxes. But realistically speaking, what we go through each year makes absolutely no sense. Simple steps must be taken to turn our economy around and most of them start with us, the American public and how we spend our money. So, come on America, get smart with your valued income!

McLousy knows nothing about the economy. good luck to america if this one gets elected.

Do You all want to give GOP another chance to destroy our country ?

GOP = The party of shame = party of filthy rich
A vote for GOP is a Vote for:
1) The draft
2) Tax cuts to the wealthiest 1%
3) War in Iraq for 100yrs
4) Bomb Iran and North Korea
5) Health Care only to the wealthiest = Market driven Health Care !! While 49 million American's do not have Health Insurance
6) Overturn Rove vs Wade
7) Job losses due to Job outsourcing while the GOP CEO's make multimillion dollar bonuses

Yeah, vote GOP = Sell our country to China, India and the middle east.

McCain knows so much about the economy, he is offering a $300,000,000.00 bounty for a car battery.

perform an exorcism ,if you want to get rid of mccain's demons.

Jindal is right about McCain but he needs to focus on repairing the damage to his own state first…there is no reason for New Orleans to still be in a shamble at this point…Jindal should take issue that his own party is still dragging its feet on meeting the basic needs of its citizens………

obama

McCain was chairman of the commerce committee in the senate which dealt with all the economic issues. Obama has no background in the economy. Obama is terrible with numbers. Obama said 57 states.

That's an understatement.

It's not about being proactive. We know McCain knows NOTHING about the economy. What I like about Obama is, even if he doesn't seem to know, he's intelligent and you can trust him to learn as much as he can. I would much rather have a learning President than one who claims to have the experience and refuses to get educated because he would look just as "naive" and "unexperienced" as Obama.

I feel sorry for McCain. He is running his race on a crippled plow horse against a super race horse. He can't possibly win! Even Murdach(sp?) the owner of fox news, the most biased republican network in America said he will lose in a landslide.

mccain wears depends.

mccain will deport him

mccain doesnt like indians or beaners.

What about Obama's "No" any anything plan. His empty rhetoric should also count for something.

mccain will deport all indians.

little indians should never tell future presidents how to handle their money.

Jindal, McCain himself said he knew nothing about the economy. This is an actual quote. He won't be able to speak, especially in detail, about something he knows nothing about. Again, McCain said that himself. So….

And Jindal, your Repub friends better know quickly that throwing another minority in the mix won't stop Barack. If you know what's good for your political career, you'll serve out your governorship.

McCain's already admitted he doesn't know anything about the economy. I think this is all we need to know about him.

Too bad McCain has no idea how to do that. THat's probably why McCain will pick Romney, someone who knows at least SOMETHING about the economy. McCain said that he was not good on economic matters, so to think that he's been hitting the books for months reading up on the economy is unlikely.

How can he be more proactive on the economy? He himself admits. He knows nothing about the economy. And to make it worse his chief economic advisor is in the bag for a Swiss bank.

McCain is running a SOCIALIST campaign (fully funded with tax payer money). His economic policy would be worse than the Soviet Unions (who coincidentally ran their campaigns by public funds).

I agree. Senator McCain has the most disorganized mind when it comes to solving any major domestic issues we are faced with. He does not hesitate to spend billions rebuilding Iraq, making sure French gain thousands of jobs building our defense tankers, promotes NAFTA agreement with Columbia but is very much against improving OUR economy, our quality of life, and our border safety. I simply do not get it.

may be he could get so advise from Cindy about how to run a company….oh wait, Budweiser is about to lay off thousands of people and raise their prices….
may be John can wait for Obama's plan then say " i thought of that first" like he has done soooo many times over the last few weeks.
or..wait..i got it may be John should have a meeting with his buds George W, Dick C and C. Keating and get their advise…

KEATING 5 KEATING 5 KEATING 5

McCain can not be trusted
Vote Obama 08

I hope McCain picks Jindal for two reasons. First for Louisiana pride, second that will cancel out any type of lesser experience against Obama. Considering Jindal has only been in Jan of 2003.

Whats funny, is Mccain is the only one tackling our trade imbalance.

McCain needs to talk more proactively not only on the economy but in everything else….

haji should respect his elders,even if they are senile.

He also needs to pay his back taxes on his 7th home in California to help the economy.. We all have to pay why not Mcelitist..????

Proactively??? Is that another way of saying he needs to lie in order to get voters to trust him?

If he is McCains running mate then all we will hear again is race. Where is Jindals ancestors from?

How can he when out of his own lips mccain said "Economics is not my strong suit, I admit I know very little about the economy…" And this is a man you guys want to fix ours, yeah, right! He just wants to continue the gwb agenda for the wealthy. He could care less about americans and i most intelligent people know that. I find it hilarious that I see some Latinos saying they will support him, all you guys are to the republicans are cheap labor, period.
